Mr.. Carlisle of his desire that there
should be Il compromise with MI.
Randall, so that some sort OF tariff
legislation might be gotten through with.
This concession to the power of Mr.. RAN
dali was gratifying to that gentleman,
and he seems inclined to be generous,
now that the administration has come
down off its high horse and conceded
that there is a God in the political Israel,
and that Sam Randall is one of His
prophets, and priest in the midst of DEM
ocratic Levites. However, no matter
how much Randall may concede he will
not concede enough to satisfy the rabid
revenue tinkerers and tariff ~destroyors.
Hence, despite the conferences and the
compromises, there will be a monkey
and parrot time in the House during the
entire session which commenced to-day.

A State of Simplicity.

A civil and social state in which there
was no place for barter or trade, must be
a novel n at any rate, and it would be
either very happy Or very dull. A visitor
to Monhegan Island, off the coast Of
Maine, this summer, found q child that
was living in just that state of simplicity.
The case is reported as follows:
Trading facilities are limited to one
store. One day I offered a cent to a small
child, but was surprised to hear it dis
painfully refused with:
. "What'd I do with it? My father
keeps the store."-Youth's Companion.

Prohibition Legal.

Washington, Dec. 5.-The supreme
court OF the United States today, in de-
Gliding tho three prohibition cases from
Kansas, held that tho state under its
police powers had the right to suppress
the liquor traffic, and that in tho state
proceeding no right or privilege guar
anteed to the distilers and liquor dealers
had been denied or abridged; also that
the state had the right to suppress the
traffic without paying damages or COM
pensation to liquor dealers. This set.
ties the question of tho validity OF the
prohibition law in the affirmative.

A South American visitor.


"There is something new" said a bird
importer, pointing to what seemed to be
half way between a turkey and a pheasant.
"What is it?" he was asked.
"a curassow. It is a native Of South
America, and does not come north OF the
Isthmus. A few of them have been i'm.
ported to this country, and they seemed
to take, and the probability is that they
will become very popular. They are about
the size Of pea fowl, and their plumage
varies from a glossy black to gray, and
there is occasionally one that is mottled
white and black. They have a peculiar
tuft of feathers on top of their heads,
which they can raise and lower at will.
In Brazil these birds run at large like wild
turkeys, and it is good sport shooting
them. They are easily domesticated, and
are wonderfully fine eating. There is such
a demand for them that a large number
will be brought up from South America,
and they will be exhibited at the poultry
shows this winter. New York Mail and

H LOVE AWAKes.
You say the dear old love Is dead.

You say the dear old love Is dead.
Love does not die, dear heart Of mine;
We may not kiss the sweet lips, red,
No love light in the eyes may shine,
But love, once born, decreed by fate.
Sleeps transiently or turns to hate.
And is this hate, my own dear heart,
That comes and gently strokes my hair3
Hate does not bid the swift tears start
At hasty words, nor Goes It care
To fondly raise the dropping head
And breathe good cheer. Love IL not dead
It sleeps, it wanders, wanders far
Beyond the horizons outmost rim,
Goes blindly on, from star to star,
But evermore comes hack to him
Who worthily will calmly wait,
Loves Weakening comes. You will not hate.

Obcrly, that he would like to make

That is a debatable question. Bald
headed Bishop Oberly is a companion
able fellow, and has lots Of friends. He
has a pious grin which must haye been
cnstamped upon his face under surgical
advice. His smile has passed into his

although sufficiently self-conseious to be
slightly dignined. He would make as
good a candidate as Sparks; and the Illi-
nois Republicans care but little which

Docs the agreement between the O. r.
Il N. Co., and the Northern Pacific for
hid their crossing each others lines in
running their passenger or freight cars
This Is claimed and hence it is claimed
that the Northern Pacific under the
name Of the Spokane and Palouse branch
cannot cross the Pavuse Junction and
Moscow branch without violating this
agreement, and that the Pennington
branch cannot run their cars across the
Spokane&Palouse branch without violence
to the same agreement, and consequently
neither will be extended so as to cross
the other. But We notice that these
railroad companies have mack of avoid
ing agreements without paying a large
penalty when they think they can make
by that kind OF bad faith towards each
other. Their agreement and laws are
not so well fixed as were the laws of the
Medes and Persians Of old, which were
never to be broken.

is hereby announced that meeting will

purpose of forming Territorial Press
Association and discussing the questions
Of segregation and annexation. All

As it will depend considerably on the
number in obtaining rates.

upon these questions SO that he will
know what to do in the future. The
majority Of the editors have these ques-
tions already settled in their own minds
and don't need pilgrimage to that out
of way place to find an oracle to teach
them their duty In the premises. The

fashion: III this great band of liars all

THE LATE SURVEYS OF THE
UNION PACIFIC.

Engineer I. A. Clark and party have
completed the survey from the Short
lane road up the Weiser and over the
divide on to the Little Salmon, down
the latter to main Salmon, thence down
main Salmon to John Day creek where
he met Van Arsdel's party going up the
river from the mouth of Rocky canon
Engineer Nuttins had surveyed from a
point on Camas Prairie down Cotton
wood creek to Clearwater and made con
n.ction with Clark's line run last year,
and had returned and started down
Salmon river from the mouth Of Rocky
canon. After meeting Clark at john
Day, Clark aud party were ordered back
to Weiser, Van Arsdel and party pro
ceeded to the mouth of Salmon and
surveyed up through the Big canon of
Salmcn river till lie met Nutting's party
and then both parties suspended and
came to Lewiston. The party who had
been at work under Paul were discharged
and Paul and five of the men who had
come out with him from Omaha were
ordered home to Omaha. Van Arsdel
and party were left here to examine the
field notes aud make the maps of The
surveys, except Clark's, and make such
corrections as needed, and connect their
survey with the surveyed lines Of the
government, where government surveys
had been made. 4 To do this Van Arsdel
was obliged to send out Nutting and
few men to Cottonwood creek to hunt
up government corners which could not
be found when running their lie down
Cottonwood, and Van Arsdel aud the
balaLcc are now engaged 10 completing
the notes aud maps of their surveys
made this season for return to the chief
engineers office at Omaha. 1t is not
known yet where their next work will be
ordered for the season. The whole com.
munity are much exercised as to what
will next be done by this company, but
the general hope and expectation is that
whatever is done will be done in the in.
terest Of carly furnishing railroad to
Lewiston and vicinity. Van Arsdel
succeeded in surveying a good and prac-
,ical line up through the canon from the
mouth Of Salmon river, which had been
deemed impracticable by the survey made
by the Northern Pacific engineers in
1872, when they made the survey down
Salmon river from the Lemhi at Salmon
City. The greatest obstacle found in the
survey of the route from Wciser to
Camas Prairie was found in getting
good practicable grade from Salmon
river up Rocky canon to Camas Prairie,
From all We can gather, the shortest and
best route to connect North with South
Idaho by rail with best grades is via
Snake river canon as surveyed by Clark
and Moscrip in 1883. What the report
Of tho surveyors will be to the company
we know not,
